Felt like rollerblading just now so wheeeeee off I went at around 8pm. In a mere 25-30 minutes SO many incidents happened!!! (Note: it's "incidents" not "accidents" haha)
-
No 1: I whee-ed past this 50+ yr old woman who was walking. It so happened she was walking
on the metal-covered drain and when I whee-ed past, the cover "grumbled" and she had a
shock! LOL!! She mumbled "Aiyo shock ah." LOL~ I said "sorry!" and whee-ed away.

No 2: Around 2 minutes after that, I took a rollercoaster ride but I think it was worse. I whee-ed down a long slope which was kinda steep for wheels. I tried to slow down by swerving left
and right to create more resistence but around 1/4 down the slope there was a bicycle behind me. So I kind of panicked. The path wasn't very wide, just the 'normal' ones around, with a few motorcycles parking by
the sides which made it even slimmer. So if I continued swerving, the bicycle would bang
into me. So the only thing I could do was to whee down. So fast. My adrenaline was
splashing out. It was so thrilling.. I would enjoy it IF ONLY there wasn't anyone in front of
me. But unfortunately, there was a woman walking in front. So it was like I'm trapped in
between a bicycle and a woman. (Of all times..) One thing about rollerblades (or rather
my rollerblades) is that the brake is unreliable. It's no better if I remove it. So I went
down the slope with no brake, no safety guards. So the next best thing to do was to shout
"Excuse me!" to the woman in front. =) Phew~ Thank God nothing happened and I
whee-ed away with a heave of relief. But it could turn out disastrous.

No 3: I was on my way home at the void deck. Then suddenly this motorcycle appearedout of a bent which was hidden from my view and zoomed past me. If I was to whee-ed
like 1 or 2 seconds faster, it would bang me painfully.

woo.. ya that was it. My very thrilling night.
